How hard is it
The opening uses a single encoded voice on the upper staff, mixing eighths and sixteenths around repeated B notes. Listen to that first line as a clear subject before the wider texture arrives. Across 156 encoded source measures, the retained writing uses eighth, 16th, 32nd detail and 6 encoded voices. This supports estimated level 9, not teacher approval or a copied publisher grade. Expanded source length and literal performance returns are not a reference printed-bar count.
